Bug#1025629: Use of PolicyKit by Sugar
Sugar uses pkexec to elevate privilege to control backlight and get device serial number. Processes are forked to run shell scripts. The command line is prefixed with pkexec. I don't know of any D-Bus use of PolicyKit, nor any use of the PyGObject API. Hope that helps!
Bug#1023795: Please undo the replace of pgplot with giza-pgplot
reassign 1023795 libpgplot-perl retitle 1023795 Use pgplot5 thanks Thanks for your permission to reassign. My users see what Debian provide as coming from and therefore part of Debian, even when it is in contrib and non-free. We value all of Debian, not only the parts of the distribution in main.
Bug#1023795: Please undo the replace of pgplot with giza-pgplot
Hello Ole, seeking to clarify your latest. My understanding is that pgplot5 is in Debian now under Debian Policy section 2.2.3, in the non-free archive area. Also, libpgplot-perl is in Debian now under Debian Policy section 2.2.2, in the contrib archive area for Stretch, and main for later releases. So I don't think the license of pgplot is the main problem or indeed a cause of the problems described here. The problems can be traced to the changes in libpgplot-perl, so I also suggest this bug be reassigned to that package. I agree that you should reassign it. I don't think the problems in this bug can be efficiently fixed in Giza, when compared to the effort required to change libpgplot-perl. I suggest you change the Giza source package Description from "drop-in, modern replacement" to "mostly compatible, modern replacement". If you'd like another bug for that, let me know. I agree a license change to pgplot would help, but it hasn't happened yet. Let's not make the perfect the enemy of the good. A risk to Debian is to create an unnecessary derivative distribution for a substantial group of users. This group of users has a very slow deployment cycle, so it can take longer than a Debian release or two for critical issues to arise. Thank you for your time on this bug.
Bug#1023795: Additional
Hello Debian Developers! Thanks for your work. I'm the developer responsible for upgrading the instrument software referenced by https://github.com/sso-aat/libpgplot-perl/wiki On porting to Giza, here are the regressions I found and my analysis; 1. plot window not staying on display is because Giza does not implement the PGPLOT /xs or /xserve device, instead collapsing it into the same as the /xw or /xwindow device. https://github.com/danieljprice/giza/blob/a6cefc4c0b1e2060ed40ff6f0a46525365952674/src/giza-drivers.c#L897 2. content rendering - background; our existing plot scripts showed a black background, but on using Giza the background changed to white; not investigated, probably requires effort porting the script from PGPLOT to Giza, 3. content rendering - curve colours; this also changed, not investigated, 4. content rendering - fonts; the size of text changed, not investigated, 5. content rendering - overall dimensions; the width and height of the plot changed, not investigated. It was cheaper in developer time to undo #869135 and create a local derivative package. In discussions with astronomers, they've told me Giza is not a drop-in replacement, but rather a poor substitute. Until this week, I had no idea. Hope you can do something about it. Let me know if you have any questions.
Bug#1022100: skycat: no rtd images, rtdServer and rtdClient hang while getopt
Package: skycat Version: 3.1.2+starlink1~b+dfsg-7 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: james.came...@anu.edu.au Dear Maintainer, Both rtdServer and rtdClient hang when run, with a CPU loop. Using gdb, the loop is in main, calling getopt, which returns 255 instead of -1, so the while loop never terminates. It is as if "char" has become "unsigned char". Changing "char c" to "int c" and recompiling seems to fix it for rtdServer and rtdClient. However, there are also other problems; receiving an image from a camera that sent a data type of -16 (USHORT) is ignored because the data type is interpreted as 240 in rtd/generic/RtdCamera.C -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.8.18-t4.03 (SMP w/8 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages skycat depends on: ii blt 2.5.3+dfsg-4.1 ii iwidgets4 4.1.1-2.1 ii libc6 2.35-3 ii libcfitsio9 4.1.0-1 ii libgcc-s1 12.2.0-5 ii libstdc++612.2.0-5 ii libtk-img 1:1.4.13+dfsg-2 ii libwcstools1 3.9.7-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.8.1-2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.4-1+b1 ii tcl-expect5.45.4-2+b1 ii tcl8.68.6.12+dfsg-1+b1 ii tk8.6 8.6.12-1+b1 ii tk8.6-blt2.5 2.5.3+dfsg-4.1 skycat recommends no packages. skycat suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

Thanks Simon, I've just tested Debian Testing (Bullseye), with src:sugar 0.117-3, src:sugar-artwork:0.117-1, src:sugar-terminal-activity version 47-1, src:vte2.91 version 0.62.0-1, and GTK 3.24.23-1 but do not see any problem. The terminal is correctly rendered in black on white or white on black modes.

Package: csound
Version: 1:6.10.0~dfsg-1
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Install Csound. Write a test program for ctcsound module.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Python "import ctcsound".
* What was the outcome of this action?
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ctcsound.py", line 29, in
libcsound = CDLL("libcsound64.so")

self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: libcsound64.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Successful import.
python-csound package is installed, same version as csound.
Expected that the python-csound package would provide everything needed to
support the import of ctcsound module.
Workaround is to install libcsound64-dev package, which adds an unversioned
symlink to the library.

Okay.
Actually, librsvg2 isn't end of life, but gnome-python-desktop is; a
strange place for the binding, but hey, it's what we have.
The binding is really tiny.
wc --lines ...

Agreed. I've heard that hundreds of programs are affected, but they
aren't in Debian, so not our problem here.
I've checked Sid dependencies, to predict next steps, described below;
have I understood consequences correctly?
Debian will remove src:sugar-toolkit and python-sugar-toolkit, which
will cascade to;
- remove the python-sugar-toolkit recommends in package sucrose,
- remove gtk2-engines-sugar from src:sugar-artwork, and the recommends
in package sucrose,
- remove package sugar-presence-service, (python-sugar-toolkit held
the last dependency),
- remove or package new upstream releases for
sugar-{poll,physics,irc}-activity
- remove or wait for new upstream release for
sugar-jigsawpuzzle-activity, logged upstream as

Upstream could bring python-rsvg source into the code base; would that be okay? Porting from python-rsvg to gir1.2-rsvg-2.0 would also require porting to GTK+ 2 GObject introspection. This would break compatibility with downloaded Sugar activities. -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/
Bug#790156: v44 already moved from python-rsvg to gir1.2-rsvg-2.0
New upstream release v44 fixed this, and was packaged, with gir-deps of rsvg-2.0, so next step is to remove the python-rsvg dependency in debian/rules. -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/

Bug#877750: gstreamer1.0-espeak: silence, loops, and errors if no voice set
Package: gstreamer1.0-espeak Version: 0.4.0-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Leading up to situation; install of Debian Sid and gstreamer1.0-espeak package. Ineffective was; shell command: gst-launch-1.0 espeak text="hello world" ! autoaudiosink as it did not speak, and continued to loop without termination, with very frequent GStreamer errors. Ineffective was; using espeak instead of espeak-ng, because gstreamer1.0-espeak depends on libespeak-ng1 only. Effective was; adding a voice property to the espeak element: gst-launch-1.0 espeak text="hello world" voice="english" ! autoaudiosink Outcome was; errors and loop when voice property not given. Expected was; spoken words. Possibly related; "espeak -v default hello" works, but "espeak-ng -v default hello" says "Error; The specified espeak-ng voice does not exist." Both espeak and espeak-ng have no "default" in list of voices shown with --voices argument. Perhaps might be fixed by changing ESPEAK_DEFAULT_VOICE to "english" in gst-plugins-espeak, so that the package will work with espeak-ng which does not have "default". -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.12.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_AU:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages gstreamer1.0-espeak depends on: ii libc6 2.24-17 ii libespeak-ng1 1.49.1+dfsg-2 ii libglib2.0-02.54.1-1 ii libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-0 1.12.3-1 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.12.3-1 gstreamer1.0-espeak recommends no packages. gstreamer1.0-espeak suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/

The strace contains the traceback, but it is not as easy as reading the traceback in ~/.sugar/default/logs/shell.log so please post that next time you have a problem starting Sugar. All I can see is that it was in homewindow.py -> meshbox.py -> neighborhood.py, which suggests Telepathy Salut is missing, and that correlates with Martin's "Versions of packages sugar-session recommends" list. As sugar-session contains tools that don't need Telepathy Salut to be installed, I'm fine with the dependency remaining as Recommends.

Subject: [PATCH] Fix for world-readable peers file
pptpsetup preserves mode on /etc/ppp/chap-secrets, but uses root
umask 0022 on /etc/ppp/peers/$TUNNEL, and group dip because of
setgid bit on /etc/ppp/peers.
Debian default umask is 0022, so override umask to 0027 and prevent
world-readable file.
Fixes Debian #646880.

Bug#575644: marked as done (pptp-linux mtu & mru bug)
Thanks Christoph. Ivan's workaround of --clamp-mss-to-pmtu was valid for a path MTU discovery failure where intermediate hosts refuse to forward ICMP fragmentation needed responses. http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-diagnosis.phtml#connections_freeze In that scenario, changing network interface MTU using the mru and mtu pppd options is effective for the interface, but doesn't solve the problem, because the cause is somewhere else in the network, not on the host running Debian. Perhaps Ivan thought it could be a feature of pptp, but with Network Manager taking over these corner cases we're unlikely to take the idea upstream in pptp. -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/

something wrong with dependencies is my guess. sugar-browse-activity is best used within the Sugar desktop, which is the sucrose package on Debian. sugar-activity provided by python-sugar3 package does not work very well outside the Sugar user interface shell; just tried it then and huge traceback because python-carquinyol wasn't installed, but that's a recommends for python-jarabe so my mistake. python-carquinyol installed and the sugar-browse-activity starts up, but without any window manager decorations (in wmaker), because it is written to be used within the Sugar desktop, which is a fullscreen app design without windows. sugar-browse-activity does suggest python-jarabe for the user interface shell; perhaps it should require or recommend instead. upstream has some more details if you're interested, see http://www.sugarlabs.org/ http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Debian not surprised forums didn't know, see also https://wiki.debian.org/Sugar

Yes, but only when IP address allocation is controlled by pptpd.
Other IP address allocation methods are radius, chap-secrets (pppd),
and remote (ipcp-accept-remote). For this pptpd takes --delegate

I've no plans to fix this by that date, but I'm interested in patches
to do so.
My preference is a /var/run/pptpd/ip directory containing a file for
each active connection, name equal to IP address, content is PID.
pptpmanager.c slot_* functions would maintain these files as a mirror
of struct slot *slots.

Bug#817602: olpc-xo1: Removal of debhelper compat 4
Thanks to Paul Wise for the heads-up. OLPC still has a software and hardware organisation (me), and is using a Debian derivative (Ubuntu) on our latest hardware (NL3), using the Debian packages of Sugar desktop. Debian should drop olpc-xo1, olpc-powerd, and olpc-kbdshim. OLPC models are XO-1, XO-1.5, XO-1.75, XO-4, and now NL3. Right now, OLPC has manufacturing capability for XO-4 and NL3. Debian only really worked well on the XO-1 and XO-1.5 models; these are no longer manufactured, units in the field are past end of life, and are failing at an expected high rate. Anybody relying on an XO-1 or XO-1.5 should buy a new laptop. ;-) Disclosure: I'm paid by OLPC. -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/

Those databases should not be included in the package anyway (Debian packaging infrastructure - and RPM infrastructure as well, I hope - triggers update-mime-database call at package _install_ time). Agreed. Yes, over in the other camp, update-mime-database is called at install time: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/etoys.git/tree/etoys.spec#n89 http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/scratch.git/tree/scratch.spec#n185 (and the etoys package for Sugar is built by the etoys source package; mentioned for understanding the reference only). But any accidental run of update-mime-database at package build time is ignored by the RPM process, because it explicitly identifies what is to be included.

Bug#635992: nodm: -nolisten tcp is forcibly added to NODM_X_OPTIONS, against site policy
Package: nodm
Version: 0.10-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
nodm now forces -nolisten tcp onto the X server command line if it was not
specified in NODM_X_OPTIONS. The implementation is in dm.c:
// Append -nolisten tcp if it wasn't in the command line
if (!has_nolisten_tcp)
{
argv[argc++] = -nolisten;
argv[argc++] = tcp;
}
nodm is implementing a security policy without any obvious way to configure
nodm not to do so.
Impact: this has broken a private application configuration, and the
alternative of X over SSH is too costly due to increased latency, increased
processing power and loss of substantive audit capability on the private
network.
Workaround 1: rebuild nodm without these lines.
Workaround 2: replace /usr/bin/X with a script that strips the -nolisten tcp
arguments before calling the genuine /usr/bin/X.
/etc/init.d/nodm, /etc/default/nodm and /usr/share/doc/nodm/README all mention
-nolisten tcp, perhaps they need not. The README or manual page does not
mention the forced addition of -nolisten tcp, perhaps they should.
(I was unable to identify the upstream location for nodm. The Debian patch
does not provide a pointer. I'm happy to take my bug report there if you can
tell me where.)

Bug#576326: xserver-xorg: keys repeat without being held down
On Sat, Feb 26, 2011 at 12:53:30PM +0100, Cyril Brulebois wrote: is that still happening with squeeze or higher? If so, please follow up with more info: http://pkg-xorg.alioth.debian.org/howto/report-bugs.html Thanks for following up. The affected host is currently tracking wheezy, updated weekly, last updated on Friday, and the symptom has not been seen for some months. Currently on 1:7.5+8 of xserver-xorg. On the other hand, having learned not to place the system under memory pressure, it is possible my learning has prevented the symptom from happening. I've just done a test by creating a workload (three parallel builds and an rsync of television transport stream), and was unable to reproduce the symptom. On that basis, assuming the other user no longer sees the problem, I think the bug can be closed. I'm interested to know if the problem was fixed though. There's nothing relevant in the changelog.gz for 1:7.5+6 onwards. Perhaps kernel?

Bug#600395: sugar-pippy-activity: Cannot import pippy
The library/ directory from the upstream source is not included in the Debian package. I don't know why, but I guess it may have had something to do with licensing of code in that directory. The Debian maintainer may be able to answer. My upstream commit f3a7b17f71990da401917c7647afaad8c33363d6 makes several fixes to copyright headers and licensing of that directory, but this has not yet reached the .tar.bz2 distribution. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#576326: xserver-xorg: keys repeat without being held down
Package: xserver-xorg Version: 1:7.5+5 Severity: normal infrequently, roughly once or twice a day, a keyboard key will begin to repeat without being held down. another key press cancels the repeating symptom. the symptom occurs more frequently with xterm, wmaker, and mplayer. the symptom is more likely to occur if the system has been placed under memory pressure, such as a backup, playback of a DVB-T transport stream, or a kernel compile. in three scenarios has the symptom been observed: 1. while scp'ing a large file from another host, while playing a television programme using mplayer, pressing the f key to toggle between fullscreen and partial screen ... mplayer responded by oscillating between the two sizes until another key was pressed, 2. while doing a backup with tar, and no active screen use, pressing F12 to start an xterm (via a wmaker key definition), resulted in several hundred xterm's being forked, until an out-of-memory condition was triggered, 3. while playing a video with mplayer, pressing 'q' to quit, mplayer properly quits, and then finding the 'q' begins to repeat in the xterm that was being mplayer's window. -- Package-specific info: /var/lib/x11/X.roster does not exist. /var/lib/x11/X.md5sum does not exist.
